Beyond Self-Realization In his previous book on philosophy (The Spontaneous Self), the author argued that the concept of free will is an illusion while detailing what it might imply for our thoughts, feelings, and behavior to dispel that belief. The present volume takes the argument further. With equal emphasis on theory and practice, it illustrates how giving up one’s identity as a free-willing inner “I” can serve as a stepping stone to the state of enlightenment. To experience enlightenment, we have to go beyond self-realization, and that can happen only if we change the way we define ourselves. Given the ubiquitous value placed on the self in our Western culture, that is not an easy task. If the path to enlightenment can be envisioned as a trail leading to the top of a mountain, the self can be seen as a large rock blocking the way. To get to the top, we have to either blast our way through the rock or go around it. Most spiritual traditions opt for the latter. In Beyond Self-Realization, the author lays out a plan for blasting our way through. The plan consists of two steps: first, a gradual shrinking of the self-illusion and second, a total uprooting of the self-tree. The techniques used include meditation, contemplation, linguistic exercises, and group work, in which members look for signs that the self-illusion is present in their behavior. Once a sign is detected, the other techniques are brought to bear on removing the “rock.” When applied with persistence, the practice is designed to release one from the cage of quiet desperation, in which most of us are trapped. Once released, we are free to discover who we really are.

From ancient times, people of India have practiced spiritual disciplines designed to clear the mind and support a state of serene, detached awareness. The practices for developing this desired state of balance, purity, wisdom, and peacefulness of mind are known collectively as "yoga." "Yoga" means "yoke" or "union" - referring to union with the true Self, the goal described in the Upanishads. The sages distinguished four basic types of people and developed practices that are particularly suitable for each type, in order that each man can attain the desired union with the Self. For rational people, there is the path of Knowledge. For meditative people, there is the path of Self-Knowledge. For naturally active people, there is the path of Selfless Action. For emotional people, there is the Path of Devotion. Editor's Note: In order to be more enjoyable during reading, this book is in 6" x 9" format. In the same spirit, the paper is cream-colored, which causes less fatigue to the eyes than white paper. All our publications are carefully handled both in terms of typography and design. 462 pages.

First published in 1962, this book is the follow-up to author Mouni Sadhu’s three previous works: “In Days of Great Peace”, “Concentration” and “Samadhi.” A noted Occultist and Mystic of the first half of the Twentieth Century, Sadhu tried many paths on the route to self-realization, and is thus uniquely qualified to relate the truths in this book. Steeped in the Hermetic schools which abounded at the turn of the 19th century, then embracing the teachings of Sri Ramana Maharshi and Vichara—yet never forgetting his Catholic faith—Mouni Sadhu successfully advances our mental synthesis and leads us to the door of True Self. “The occultist who seeks to find answers to everything by means of mental understanding may find some assistance on this path in the following chapters. On the other hand, spiritually minded persons may discover confirmation of their own inner longings, when they read about the reality and possibility of the Ultimate Realization and about the necessary steps toward it. “It is in this hope that I have collected here a number of essays that have been partly published during the past seven years, rounding them out with some new chapters especially written for the purpose of the present book. “It is essentially a series of essays on various aspects of occultism and the spiritual experience.”

This book proposes that humanity is going through a spiritual awakening that is driving it into a quest for self-knowledge. This quest will, in time, bring humanity to the gates of self-realization and the inevitable acceptance that divinity is not only an outward manifestation but that it is innate and inherent, and forms the core of being of each human life. This quest is a profoundly personal one, and as such it should challenge all preconceived notions and structured beliefs. If you take your quest in earnest, the simple narrative of these experiences will prove to be real gems along the way. The author in writing this book brings to the surface in very simple terms a new understanding of Divinity that will hopefully move the concept from the halls of the theologians and esoterists to the avid minds of humanity, where it is most needed.
